Target Background

Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) is a potent survival factor for central and peripheral neurons and is essential for the development of the kidney and the enteric nervous system. Physiological responses to GDNF require the presence of a novel glycosylphosphatidylinositol linked protein, GDNFRalpha, a cell surface receptor for GDNF. The cDNAs encoding GDNFRalpha from human, rat, chicken, and mouse have been cloned. GDNFRalpha has also been referred to as GFRalpha-1, Ret ligand 1 (RETL1) and TGF- beta-related neurotrophic factor receptor 1 (TmR1). GFRalpha-1 binds GDNF specifically and mediates activation of the Ret protein tyrosine kinase (PTK). Thus, GDNF, GFRalpha, and the Ret PTK form a complex to transmit the GDNF signal and to mediate GDNF function. GFRalpha-1 has been identified in brain, liver, kidney, and spleen.
